Cognitive Robotics is one major application domain for
neural learning methods, whereas robustness to environmental
conditions, learning in interaction with human partners, and
developmental learning are ideal and challenging playgrounds.
We will discuss recent progress using brain-inspired learning and
architecture with focus on
three important questions: how to get from simple movement to rich motor skills?
What do human inspired computational architectures contribute? How
shall interaction with human users be shaped? Application examples will include
the child-like iCub, the commercial humanoid Nao and the Honda humanoid robot.
Finally, we will illustrate that the developed methods are also highly relevant for
tomorrow's much more flexible automation technology.
